SERVITES

Wellcome to our Charity

SERVITES OF THE POOR (Shortly known as ‘SERVITES’) is a non-profit Organisation working to improve the well-being of people living at the margins of our society, especially the children, women, small & marginal farmers, unorganised workers and other vulnerable groups and communities.

It was initiated in 1993 by a team of youngsters who had witnessed the sufferings of the marginalised poor and thus laid down their lives for the well-being of the subaltern communities and groups. They are proud to be called as ‘SERVITES’ (‘SERVITES’ means ‘SERVANTS’) of the poor.

The organisation has a team of committed professionals, technically qualified persons as full-time, part-time and volunteers whose contribution and might take forward the mission further.
